章節 80: Kicking the Piedmontese

Almost a month after Napoleon assumed command of the Army of Italy, a remarkable series of events unfolded. It marked the beginning of a string of triumphs for Napoleon and his forces. It all commenced when General Beaulieu launched an attack on Voltri, followed swiftly by the capture of the city of Montenotte.
